An Oakland, California–based startup has a business plan that sounds like modern alchemy: turning seawater into metal, and using it to build cars, airplanes, satellites, and drones. Magrathea Metals, ...

For the first time, researchers at Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon have produced a magnesium foam made entirely from natural marine ...

Magnesium alloy can be made stronger and more workable by hot pressing under optimized conditions to produce an ultra-fine crystalline structure, A*STAR researchers have shown. The improved material ...

Electropulsing treatment (EPT) is a state-of-the-art technology for rapidly heating metallic materials. The highly energy-efficient and eco-sufficient process utilizes a pulsed current or ...

New findings are set to revolutionize the entire chemistry of magnesium. The research team have discovered magnesium, which usually has a double positive charge in chemical compounds, in the elemental ...

Black was the first person to recognize magnesium (Mg) as an element in 1755. Later, in 1808, Davy isolated this element by evaporating mercury from a magnesium amalgam, which was produced by ...

The reactivity of metals can be determined using displacement reactions. In a displacement reaction a more reactive metal will displace a less reactive metal from its compound. For example, magnesium ...

StormBreaker, have announced the launch of its new ultra-lightweight StormBreaker mouse, constructed from magnesium metal alloy and designed specifically for gaming performance. The new ...
